rapes

Violent criminal acts

Rapes is the plural of rape, which has two distinct meanings.

The primary sense is forced sexual intercourse—a violent crime: The serial rapist committed dozens of rapes before being caught.

Separately, rape is a plant in the mustard family grown for its oil-rich seeds, the source of canola oil: Fields of rape covered the countryside in yellow.
